Bulgaria’s Orthodox Church marks on March 9 the Day of Forty Holy Martyrs of Sebaste. The day commemorates the victory of Tsar Ivan Asen II over Theodore Komnin of Epirus on March 9, 1230 near the village of Klokotnitsa. Later, Ivan Asen II built the popular Holy Forty Martyrs church in the capital city of Veliko Tarnovo which is still functioning.
